Nevertheless, She Persisted Embroidery Kit

Embroidery kit: Nevertheless, she persisted. This modern hand embroidery kit celebrates the strength of determined women, throughout the ages and around the world. From Laura Ingalls Wilder to Marie Curie, Jane Austen to Jane Goodall; from the young mamas to the great grandmothers, to the very littlest girl. Women and girls face challenges large and small every day - and stand up to them, with pluck and determination, hard work and grace - and always with persistence. And that is worth celebrating. While we're at it, why not learn how to stitch - this DIY embroidery kit contains everything you'll need!

This pattern looks complex, but in reality the stitches used are very simple! The lettering is optional - stitch over it if you like, or leave it in ink. And I'll walk you through a few options for working the flowers, so you can choose a version you're comfortable with. Either way, an adventurous beginner will tackle it just fine, and a more experienced stitcher will enjoy customizing the details!

Note: This listing is for ONE embroidery kit! Select the colour you would like before adding to your cart.

*Please note: the exact hoop varies depending on supply. A quality wooden hoop is included with each complete kit; may not be the exact hoop pictured.
